Pressure Washers

[Watcher of the skies]

I recently replaced a dead Nilfisk with a Makita HW101. I'm pleased with it so far and it's quieter.

I bought an Ava Evolution.

10 year warranty I think.


It’s VERY nice, with some real nice creature comforts.

Remember to service it for the 10yr warranty.

I was eyeing up an AVA Go but they're hard to come by.

Yeah that’s cool with me, probably good practice to get into

I have ended up with a Karcher hot pressure washer, a hds 601c. I had spotted it on eBay and it was local-ish, listed as non working. Apparently it was tripping out the consumer unit when turned on, a quick google suggested it could be something as easy as a £10 capacitor swap. The machine looked clean and un abused and the seller seemed decent.

Won the auction for £313, collected this morning, got it home, plugged it in and it fired straight up!

Now it doesn’t trip the power but it does smoke more than Dot Cotton, more googling says it could be a few things but a full burner service kit is only £35 so I will try this.

Pretty happy with the outcome, hopefully it doesn’t come back to bite me. Just need to find a space for it now because it’s massive.
